On this episode of Bad Dads Film Review, the team reviews This Is England (2006), Shane Meadows' raw, semi-autobiographical coming-of-age drama starring Thomas Turgoose, Stephen Graham, Vicky McClure, Joe Gilgun, Andrew Shim, Rosamund Hanson, and Jack O'Connell.In this episodeRecording outside the man cave in brutal heat, with England playing later and possible background birdsReturning to Shane Meadows after the dads' love for Dead Man's ShoesMeadows writing from lived experience and Shaun Field as a loose version of the young Shane MeadowsThe film's 1983 setting: Falklands aftermath, Thatcher-era mood, working-class Midlands anonymity, and immaculate period detailShaun's grief over his father's death and the brutal school bullying around his clothesThe infamous Mini joke, the playground fight, and Reegs' detour into the real-world Mini passenger recordWoody's gang as surrogate family: underpass tea, derelict-house “hunting”, haircuts, boots, braces, and the gifted Ben ShermanSkinhead culture before the racist takeover: ska, soul, punk, clothes, belonging, and styleSmell, the shed snog, New Romantic fashion, and the very awkward age-gap discussionCombo's entrance from prison and the immediate tonal shift from funny coming-of-age story to something threateningStephen Graham's performance as Combo: vulnerable, pathetic, charismatic, manipulative, racist, and terrifyingCombo gaslighting Woody, exploiting Shaun's Falklands grief, and splitting the gangThe National Front meeting: respectable presentation, simple blame politics, Frank Harper's speaker, and Gadget's “NASHNIL” spellingShaun's corruption under Combo: racist intimidation, the corner-shop robbery, and the stolen language of national prideLol rejecting Combo and the emotional humiliation that turns outward into violenceMilky and Combo bonding over music and roots before Combo's jealousy eruptsThe brutal beating of Milky, Shaun being forced to watch, and Combo's immediate collapse into remorseShaun throwing the St George's flag into the sea as a rejection of the racist version of EnglandThe continuing relevance of the film's politics from 1983 to 2006 to nowStrong recommendations for the follow-up series: This Is England '86, '88, and '90Bad Dads consensusSidey: Strong recommend — sees it as at least a 9/10 and reads the final flag moment as Shaun rejecting the National Front's corrupted version of England.Pete: Strong recommend — praises the film's lived-in authenticity, performances, and the follow-up series; still holds Dead Man's Shoes as a 10/10 comparison point.Reegs: Strongly positive — highlights the bleakness, the current relevance of the racist rhetoric, and Stephen Graham's frighteningly layered work.Cris: Engaged with the period detail, humour, and discomfort of the film's tonal shift, particularly once Combo arrives.Final takeThis Is England begins as a warm, funny, scruffy story about a lonely boy finding friends, then slowly reveals how easily grief and poverty can be weaponised by people offering simple enemies and ugly certainty. It is beautifully observed, brilliantly acted, deeply uncomfortable, and still horribly relevant.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.

David and Jane Francis come home from a European holiday to find the wealthy widow who'd sublet their country house dead of fright — and the rooms left behind tell of melted mirrors, scorched floors, and a circle burned into the wood that no living tenant should have known how to draw.Look for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Daily Soap Opera Spoilers by Soap Dirt (GH, Y&R, B&B, and DOOL)
Click to Subscribe: https://bit.ly/Youtube-Subscribe-SoapDirt General Hospital sees explosive spoilers suggest that the character Ross Cullum, played by Andrew Hawkes, will finally meet his demise. Fans eagerly await the return of Jason Morgan, portrayed by Steve Burton, who is set to make a dramatic re-entry in the coming weeks. The storyline takes an exciting turn when Lulu Spencer, currently played by Alexa Havins, discovers the truth about her lover, not Nathan. GH reveals the actor Dominic Zamprogna, who brings the character Dante to life, shared some intriguing insights during a recent fan event. He confirmed the absence of any romantic reunion between Dante and Lulu, even after she discovers the truth about Cassius. Moreover, the upcoming episodes will see a shift in power as Anna Devane, played by Finola Hughes, resumes her position as police commissioner despite her recent mental breakdown. The General Hospital rumor mill is also churning out whispers about a significant storyline pivot for Jason upon his return in July. A shift from mob stories to WSB stories is anticipated, with Anna convincing Jason to join the WSB. The recast Serena Baldwin, portrayed by Kelly Kruger, is rumored to arrive as a WSB agent working under Brennan and investigating Cullum's death. More GH spoilers indicate the character of Jason, who is currently held by the WSB in Indonesia, will be on screen but not in Port Charles for a month or so. The upcoming episodes will also see a major new female hire and the return of two old school Cassadines.

In this episode we discuss new WWE event ideas aka the "Sack Match", remind people to go listen to Ike Reilly, how to be a secret fugitive, the dangers of mens' rights groups and boy power, night swimming with sharks, everything is Numb3rs, Lovecraftian Cyrano de Bergerac, how to stop a spouse from testifying against you, clever substitutions for heroin, and so much more!

Clear History (2013) Director: Greg Mottola Cast: Larry David, Michael Keaton, Bill Hader, Jon HammWhat happens when you take a Curb Your Enthusiasm episode, forget to trim the fat, and stretch it into a feature film? You get Clear History — and honestly? It's still kind of great, even if it refuses to be anything other than exactly what it is.This week John and Sean dive deep into this 2013 HBO gem, requested by Patreon member Greg (host of You Can Eat That Crust and Pizza Bones), where Larry David plays a man who gives up a billion-dollar stake in an electric car company over a name, disappears to Martha's Vineyard, and plots revenge against the guy who got rich off his stupidity. You know — totally relatable stuff.In this episode, we discuss:Larry David Playing Larry David (Again) — The guys break down why this movie is essentially an uncut Curb episode with a different character name slapped on it. Is that a bad thing? Is that a great thing? The answer is: yes, and also both.They Didn't Trim the Fat — A deep dive into what separates a tight 40-minute Curb episode from a 100-minute movie that wanders into dead spots. Spoiler: it's editing discipline, and this movie didn't have enough of it.Joe Stumpo Steals the Whole Damn Movie — Michael Keaton shows up playing the town drunk on Martha's Vineyard and absolutely runs off with every scene he's in. Sean makes the case that Keaton is the unsung MVP of this entire production, and it's hard to argue with him."I Know There Aren't Any Women That Have It" — The guys land on the single funniest line in the movie, a throwaway bit about old bald guy fetishes and prison demographics that somehow perfectly encapsulates everything Larry David is as a comedian.We Also Talked About:WWE Legends: Legion of Doom (Amazon) (Biography Special) — Sean watched the documentary on Hawk and Animal, and it goes places. Specifically: a deeply emotional story about a penlight on a fishing boat that Nikita Koloff somehow turned into a religious experience. You have to hear it to believe it.The Boys (Amazon) (Season Finale) — Sean finished the series finale and loved it. No spoilers, but he makes a pointed observation about a show that commentates on superhero movie culture while simultaneously spinning off into... more superhero content.Faces of Death (Amazon) (2026 Remake) — A surprisingly solid new take on the concept, reframed around a content moderator on a fake social media platform stumbling onto recreated snuff-style videos. Sean gives it half a hot dog and means it as a compliment.Magnum Opus (Ebay) (Youtube) (The Movie) — Directed by friend of the show Addison Bennick (Psycho Ape I & II), this DIY Jackass-style movie is a 20-year labor of love and John genuinely digs it. Available through Addison's eBay store — physically, like a lunatic, the way movies should be sold.Six Days to Air (Youtube)— The South Park documentary. John finally watched it. Trey Parker and Matt Stone spend most of the six days doing absolutely nothing, and it's riveting.Dead Man on Campus (Amazon) (1998) — Mark-Paul Gosselaar in a movie about two college kids trying to get their suicidal roommate to actually do it so they can pass their classes. Even by 1998 standards, John was a little stunned this got a theatrical release. No Jeremy Piven, though, so it edges out PCU.Some of the above links are affiliate links — if you purchase through them we get a small kickback, and it's the best way to support the show.New episodes of the Dewey Pod Monster podcast drop every week.

When the luxury liner SS Morro Castle erupted in flames off the New Jersey coast in 1934, it left behind 137 dead, a captain's corpse that vanished before it could be examined, and a heroic radio operator whose criminal past suggested he may have started the fire himself. | #WDRadio June 14, 2026==========HOUR ONE: Jeannie Saffin already had a tough life, being born with a birth defect that stunted her mental growth, leaving her with the mind of a child, never getting married and having kids, never dating… but that all pales in comparison to how she died: bursting into flames for no apparent reason. Was Jeannie Saffin the victim of spontaneous human combustion? (The Spontaneous Combustion of Jeannie Saffin) *** Sometimes it's easy to get a girl to go out with you – just be polite and ask. Some men resort to cheesy pickup lines thinking it will help their chances. But one man chose to call upon a woman in a very unusual way… by purchasing a gravestone. (Pitching Woo With a Tombstone) *** If a man demands his girlfriend give up the baby they conceived, otherwise he would no longer be with the woman – what is that newborn's mother to do? Sadly, Emily Dunn made the wrong decision – with tragic results. (The Durbin Baby Murder) *** The transplanting of an organ is almost a routine procedure now in the 21st century – even doing a transplant of an arm or a leg isn't uncommon. But when you talk about transplanting a living head onto a dead body – that's when things get tricky. But Robert White thought it could be done – and even tried doing it. (The Man Who Wanted To Do a Head Transplant) *** Imagine getting onto a plane and once in the air finding out that the pilot wasn't qualified to fly that kind of plane – and that he was only there because the original pilot wasn't available due to being dead. That's what happened in 1934 on the boat, the SS Morro Castle. And it was the beginning of tragedy after tragedy. (Mystery, Mismanagement, and Mayhem on the SS Morro Castle)==========HOUR TWO: In June of 2009 a man calling himself Peter Bergmann checked in to a hotel in Sligo Town. Five days later his body was found on Rosses Point Beach. But Peter Bergmann was not Peter Bergmann – so who was he? (The Peter Bergmann Mystery) *** Sharing stories from people who are frightened by a bump in the night or a strange shadow on the wall in their bedroom is one thing, but when you get professional ghost hunters telling of the scariest experiences they've had, you know it has to be some freaky stuff. (Scariest Experiences of Ghost Hunters) ==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: More of the scariest experiences of ghost hunters! *** I'll tell you about that time when a dam failed – and because of it, people were legally allowed to marry the dead.

Replacement captain William Warms steered into gale-force winds and waited 38 minutes to send a distress call, paint-gummed lifeboats refused to lower, untrained passengers broke their necks jumping in faulty life jackets, and at least 137 of the 549 aboard died before the charred hulk ran aground at Asbury Park, New Jersey, where souvenir stands sprang up around the wreck. Suspicion later fell on chief radio operator George White Rogers, the disaster's celebrated hero, whose hidden history of arson convictions, an aquarium-heater bomb built to maim a police lieutenant asking too many questions, and a double murder ended with his sudden death in Trenton State Prison — and the disappearance of his prison records.From there the episode lightens briefly with a pair of newspaper accounts of courtship by gravestone: an 1896 story from the Cincinnati Enquirer about a widower who finally bought a $50 monument for his wife of five years past — not out of grief, but to impress a wealthy widow who had called him too cheap to mark the grave — and a 1924 item from the Kansas City Star about a Kansas woman who married a widower precisely because he kept his first wife's grave so well.Next comes Dr. Robert J. White, the Cleveland neurosurgeon who watched the first successful human kidney transplant in Boston in 1954 and spent the rest of his life pursuing something far stranger: transplanting a living human head onto a donor body. In March 1970 he performed the operation on monkeys, moving one animal's head onto another's decapitated body in an 18-hour surgery; the hybrid lived nine days. White, a devout Catholic who sparred publicly with journalist Oriana Fallaci and animal rights activist Ingrid Newkirk, came close to attempting the procedure on a quadriplegic human volunteer through Russia's medical system before he died in 2010, leaving behind questions about consciousness, identity, and death that medicine has yet to answer.The hour then turns to Jeannie Saffin, a 61-year-old London woman with the mental capacity of a child who, on September 15, 1982, burst into flames while sitting calmly at her father's kitchen table in Edmonton with her hands in her lap. Her father Jack and brother-in-law Don Carroll doused the fire, but Jeannie — burned to the subcutaneous fat on her face, hands, and abdomen — never screamed, slipped into a coma, and died eight days later. The chair she sat in was unmarked, the nearest flame was a shielded pilot light five feet away, and a police constable concluded it was spontaneous human combustion, a verdict the coroner rejected. Skeptic Joe Nickell's pipe-ember theory accounts for some details, but not how a human body ignited so completely in under two minutes while burning nothing around it.Then the mystery of Peter Bergmann: the tall, gray-haired man with an Austrian accent who arrived in Sligo, Ireland by bus on June 12, 2009, checked into the Sligo City Hotel under a false name and a fabricated Vienna address, and over three days left the hotel thirteen times carrying a full purple plastic bag — returning empty-handed each time, never once caught by CCTV disposing of anything. He bought ten international stamps, cut the labels from his clothes, folded them neatly on a rock at Rosses Point Beach, and was found dead at the water's edge the next morning near Dead Man's Point. The autopsy revealed terminal prostate cancer he could not have been unaware of, yet he died of cardiac arrest, not dr

Ep. 409: Chris LeMaire on Bleak Week + John Wilson on Beak Week 2026 Welcome to The Last Thing I Saw, with your host, Nicolas Rapold. The 2026 edition of Bleak Week marks the fifth year of the acclaimed series at the American Cinematheque, which now also takes place in other theaters across the nation and the globe. Happily I was able to talk to Chris Lemaire, director of programming at the American Cinematheque in Los Angeles and co-founder of Bleak Week, about a few fantastic selections in the ongoing series, including tribute programs for guests Isabelle Huppert and Warwick Thornton, rarities like Letters from a Dead Man and Eureka, and restorations such as Buster and Billie. On the second half of the episode, I was lucky to catch filmmaker John Wilson, co-founder of the Low Cinema in Ridgewood, in the midst of the theater's delightful Beak Week program. Wilson talks about a personal favorite from the bird-centric lineup, a special recent surprise guest, a program of pigeon shorts, and some infrequently screened titles in the lineup.

It's time for your favorite Zombie Movie Podcast brought to you by Jay of the Dead's New Horror Movies, which is here to present another fascinating edition of Dead Man Still Walking with Dr. Walking Dead Kyle Bishop! This time, Dr. Bishop journeys back to 1974 for a double-feature exploration of two very different zombie films: Dead of Night (also known as "Deathdream") and Sugar Hill. One is a somber, politically charged meditation on the lingering trauma of the Vietnam War, while the other is a colorful blend of Blaxploitation cinema, voodoo lore, revenge storytelling, and classic raised-dead zombies. In this episode, Kyle examines how Dead of Night uses zombiism as a powerful metaphor for veterans struggling to return home after war, creating one of the most emotionally devastating zombie narratives of the 1970s. He also discusses Sugar Hill as a noteworthy revival of the voodoo zombie tradition, connecting it to earlier zombie cinema while highlighting its campy entertainment value, memorable Baron Samedi character, and undead revenge squad. Along the way, Dr. Walking Dead reflects on the evolution of zombie films during the years between Night of the Living Dead and Dawn of the Dead, offering historical context for this episode's two overlooked entries in zombie movie history. Note: This episode contains spoilers for both Dead of Night (1974) and Sugar Hill (1974). Also, to view ALL of Dr. Bishop's Dead Man Still Walking solocast episodes can USE THIS LINK.

On this week's AIPT Comics Podcast, we're joined by writer Zack Kaplan to talk about two ambitious new projects that tap into some of today's biggest anxieties. First up is Only the Savage Are Left, Kaplan's new post-apocalyptic series with Stefano Raffaele, which imagines a world overrun by a virus that transforms people into monsters. During the conversation, Kaplan digs into the moral dilemmas at the heart of the series, the challenge of creating a new kind of monster apocalypse, and why the story's central romance is just as important as its horror. We also discuss The Smart Division, his upcoming AI-driven crime thriller with John Pearson, exploring how rapidly advancing technology, generational divides, and questions about institutional trust shaped the book's premise.

What was the starting point for the virus concept, and how did you land on the idea that the “cure” is tied to killing another infected person? There's an early suggestion in the book that civilization didn't collapse because people failed to work together, but because they turned on each other. How much of this story is meant to reflect real-world anxieties about how fragile social order really is? You've described the idea that “civilized society is a failed experiment.” How does that philosophy shape Ryder's journey, especially as someone who begins the story outside that cycle of violence? Ryder starts off relatively sheltered, living behind a wall and seemingly untouched by the infection. What interested you about telling a story through a character who hasn't yet been forced to compromise his morality? The relationship that pulls Ryder out into the world feels central to the emotional core of the book. How did you approach balancing that love story with the brutality of the setting? Without spoiling too much, how does the virus actually work on a thematic level? Is it purely biological, or is it also meant to represent something more psychological or societal? As Ryder encounters other survivors and “monster-killers,” how do you approach defining who the real monsters are in this world? Shifting to The Smart Division, the idea of an AI being involved in a “perfect murder” is chillingly plausible. What kind of real-world advancements in AI or predictive tech inspired this story? The pairing of a Gen-Z savant and a veteran FBI agent feels like a classic odd-couple dynamic. What makes that contrast especially interesting in a story about artificial intelligence and crime? Fun one: if you had to survive in the world of Only the Savage Are Left, what's your strategy in the first 24 hours… and are you making it out alive?
"I want to underline my own belief that art must carry man's craving for the ideal, must be an expression of his reaching out towards it; that art must give man hope and faith. And the more hopeless the world in the artist's version, the more clearly perhaps must we see the ideal that stands in opposition to it—otherwise life would become impossible! Art symbolises the meaning of our existence." ― Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting in Time (1986) The Cold War Cinema team is joined by guest Taylor R. Genovese to discuss Andrei Tarkovsky's debut feature film, Ivan's Childhood (1962), a Soviet masterpiece about the Great Patriotic War and prime example of Thaw–era cinema. Taylor R. Genovese is an assistant professor of philosophy at Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, New York. He has also been a filmmaker and photographer for over a decade. His multimodal and transdisciplinary research focuses on Marxism, historical memory, and borderlands. He is also an editor and board member at Iskra Books, a nonprofit scholarly publisher that releases original works of revolutionary theory, history, ecology, and art. In this episode we discuss: Andrei Tarkovsky's life and career The historical and political context of Ivan's Childhood Tarkovsky's aesthetic vision and theological concerns How the concept of "toska" shapes the sensibilities of the literary and cinematic arts in the Slavic world, including in Tarkovsky's films. The moving image representation of trauma and transcendence in Ivan's Childhood. The poetry of Andrei's father, Arseny Tarkovsky, and its influence on the filmmaker. The Soviet astethetics of Alexander Bogdanov (1873–1928), as articulated in his book Art and the Working Class, which Genovese translated from the Russian in 2022.

Send us Fan MailA phone rings in a cafe. A stranger answers. And suddenly a whole life gets rewritten in real time. That's the haunting spark behind Dead Man's Cell Phone by Sarah Ruhl, and we can't stop thinking about how accurately it predicts the way modern technology shapes our relationships, our attention, and even our grief.We're joined by director Melissa Bossard and cast members Lauri Deards, Mark Agars, and Saverio Guccioni to talk about building this production for the Theater on the Edge Festival at Chino Community Theatre. We unpack the play's central paradox: smartphones and social media can reconnect old friends and create community, yet they also train us to live at a distance from our own bodies, our tables, and the people right in front of us. Along the way, we dig into character choices for Jean, Dwight, and Gordon and the bigger question the script keeps asking: who are we when everyone only sees the version we choose to show?We also go behind the curtain on community theater craftsmanship, including black box staging, shared festival set pieces, projections, lighting, and the practical teamwork that makes experimental theater possible. One of the most exciting surprises: original music composed and arranged specifically for this production, created from the emotional world of the script. We even discuss why bringing in an intimacy and fight director matters for actor safety, trust, and better storytelling.If you care about live theater, identity in the digital age, or the real cost of always being “reachable,” hit play, then subscribe, share the episode with a theater friend, and leave us a review and a five-star rating.

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: Iran's months-long internet blackout is exposing growing cracks inside the regime itself, as politically connected elites reportedly receive privileged online access through controversial “white SIM cards” while millions of ordinary citizens remain digitally cut off from the outside world. North Korea reportedly adopts a chilling new constitutional provision requiring automatic nuclear retaliation if Kim Jong Un is assassinated, raising fresh concerns about a potential “nuclear dead man's switch” inside the isolated regime. An international maritime operation delivers a major blow to global drug cartels after authorities crack down on what investigators describe as a transatlantic “cocaine highway” stretching across the Atlantic Ocean. And in today's Back of the Brief—the man accused of targeting President Trump during last month's White House Correspondents' Dinner pleads not guilty to multiple federal charges as questions surrounding the security breach continue mounting.
